Brewery in Weismain in Upper Franconia, on the northern edge of Franconian Switzerland. Founded in 1798 as Püls-Bräu, it stayed with the Püls family for seven generations until the Maisel brewing family of Bayreuth took over the shares in October 2022. The company has traded as Weismainer Brauerei since 2024, when the range was trimmed and brought under one name on every label. Besides roughly 60,000 hectolitres of beer, the site fills mineral water from its own deep well and soft drinks.

Everything sits in one family — which makes the comparison below the interesting part. It isn't what they brew that sets them apart, but how.
